EAL Support (English as an Additional Language)

05/06/2020

We work alongside schools, colleges and universities to help EAL learners access curricula and achieve their potential. Our EAL tutors work with children and young adult learners at all stages of their English language development, from those who are learning English for the first time to those who have been using English for many years, but still require support to develop their higher order language skills. Our EAL support services comprise the following: Support to help tutees access, process, consolidate and develop English language pertinent to the curriculum (or curricula) studied at the school, college, or university in which they are learning. Please note that our EAL tutors provide support for curricula followed in the state sector (National Curriculum) and independent school sector; Support to help tutees develop Academic Writing skills. We guide EAL tutees through the academic writing process, developing their ability to communicate ideas accurately and fluently and to research effectively. We help tutees interpret the task (or question), plan, structure, edit, proofread, and apply feedback. We provide support with class essays (including creative writing), exam essays, experimental reports, scientific essays, dissertations, and academic articles; Support to help tutees develop the study skills required to enhance self-confidence, optimise academic performance and learn effectively at school, college or university; Support to help tutees complete the university application process effectively (UCAS); Support to help tutees produce an outstanding personal statement.
